威爾斯唯一一部公映的彩色電影，故事依舊奇情：澳門富商從秘書口中聽到一個愛情傳說，有人為了香燈有后愿意付錢找人與妻子上床。傳說歸傳說，但澳門富商卻要使這個不朽故事成真，找來美女珍．摩露，當正是自己妻子，要她找人轟烈地做愛做的事。乍聽下來真是一場天方夜譚，但影片拍來感人至深，53歲的威爾斯與成熟的珍．摩露演出動人不已，最后一個鏡頭更被影迷形容是「魔術(shù)」，令影片入圍柏林國際電影節(jié)競逐最佳電影金熊獎。
The only colour film by Welles publicly released is another showcase of the absurdity of human nature. A Macau millionaire is told a legend about someone who is willing to pay a huge sum for someone who would sleep with his wife in order to produce an heir. In an act to make the legend real and to immortalise it, the millionaire finds Jeanne Moreau to be his wife and starts to search for the man who would make love to her. A potent performance by Welles and Moreau makes the film purely magical; a Golden Berlin Bear nominee for Berlin International Film Festival.
